Default Should I get the billet aluminum pulley with Turn One power steering pump?

Hi, as the title states, I am planning to get a Turn One power steering pump and I'm wondering if I should also opt for the billet aluminum pulley ($74) that complements it. The car is a '01 Z06 and has the plastic pulley. I could reuse the stock pulley since I don't plan to replace my steering pump very often after the upgrade or get the metal LS2 pulley which I heard is considerably heavier. My main concerns are strength of the pulley and weight.
